Description
PacIOOS is one of eleven regional observing programs in the U.S. that are supporting the emergence of the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System. PacIOOS works to develop the observational, modeling, data management, and outreach components of an end to end ocean observing system to generate products that help to ensure a safe, clean, and productive ocean and a resilient coastal zone for the U.S. Pacific Islands. PacIOOS has focused initial development on water quality sensing, prediction of coastal hazards, ocean state observations, marine ecosystem information, ocean models, and the development of integrated data access and visualization capabilities. PacIOOS Voyager is an interactive map interface for visualizing and downloading oceanographic observations, forecasts, and other geospatial data and information related to the marine environment and beyond.
